AbstractAbstract
[en] A nuclear polarimeter based on the low energy analyzing power of the 6Li(p, 3He)α reaction has been developed and tested for proton energies below Ep = 300 keV. The polarimeter uses a 6LiF target evaporated on a water-cooled tantalum backing. The target is observed at backward angles by four silicon surface barrier detectors. The energy dependence of the analyzing power under 130deg for the 6Li(p, 3He)α reaction has been determined down to 200 keV. Spin rotation has been observed via a magnetic field incorporated in a Wien filter demonstrating that the polarimeter is operational. (orig.)
